Commanding a null income at 35, pudgy, archangel-faced Leslie Stevens is one of the hottest writer-tycoons in or out of the smog. He is also one of Hollywood's new breed: the curious combination of corporation executive and creative artist that is taking over the town. On Broadway, Stevens' Marriage-Go-Round, with Charles Boyer and Claudette Colbert, is spinning briskly into its second season. The pilot shows for a couple of TV series are ready for production. The Pink Jungle, his new, Broadway-bound comedy about the cosmetics industry, is in rehearsal. And last week...
...Lodge Brothers. Earlier in the week, flying into Leningrad in an Aero-null null Nixon found himself with unexpected traveling companions-Soviet No. 2 Man Frol Kozlov (TIME, July 13) and his auburn-haired wife. Leningrader Kozlov's presence on the plane was proof positive that Nikita Khrushchev had recovered from the peevishness over Captive Nations Week that had inspired his jaw-dropping "kitchen summit" with Nixon at the U.S. fair in Moscow fortnight ago. Smiling Frol, who seemed to regard Nixon as a lodge brother in the freemasonry of politicians, saw to it that the Nixons...
...real and serious issue was the conduct of Jackie Bright, the M.C. who rose from the floor of obscure nightclubs to the $25,000-a-year post of administrative secretary of null a 13,000-member union made up of vaudevillians, circus performers and miscellaneous nightclub entertainers (ranging from Red Skelton at $40,000 per week to a chorus boy at $75). Sporting pearl tie pin, jeweled cuff links and charcoal-grey suit, Bright quickly earned a reporter's nickname, "Blackie." Against him stood Blondie herself-Actress Penny Singleton, fortyish, who was up for re-election as A.G.V.A. president...
Shackleton never got closer than 60 miles to his proposed beachhead. Clamped in the vise of a null ice pack for ten months, Endurance drifted 1,000 miles northward off the Palmer Peninsula. Finally the party abandoned the crushed wreck and stood on the floe, some 300 miles from land. The men tried dragging boats across the ice in search of open water; they had to quit after two miles. For five more months, they camped in the open, drifting, drifting. There was the sad rite of shooting the dogs, the terror of being dragged off the ice by vicious...
...received as much as $200,000 for appearing in a movie (Island in the Sun). This week he starts filming his own picture, Odds Against Tomorrow, in which he is involved both as co-star and producer (through his own company, HarBel Productions). He has even achieved that peculiarly null century sign of distinction, a regular weekday visit to a psychoanalyst. His second wife and his nine-year-old daughter (by his first marriage) are in analysis, too; his first wife has already been analyzed...
